Or the few ethnic minorities who proudly stand with him in statements or on stage or the women who gladly serve a self-professed "pussy grabber". Frankly, this is just another way for anti-Semitism to make itself known which is clearly on display with all of the "$$$$$" comments, because as we know, the only reason Jews do anything is for the money! The motivations of other minorities' continued support of this asshole aren't under scrutiny, only 'the Jew'! Of course, all those Jews who have loudly spoken out against him or spoken loudly in defense of minorities, well, we just don't count and mentioning it is akin to "bragging".
